NDAA Section 1021, Indefinite Detention of Americans
An analysis of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) focuses on Section 1021, which allegedly allows for the indefinite detention of U.S. citizens without trial. The Obama administration's aggressive legal fight to overturn Judge Forrest's injunction suggests the law may already be in use against dual nationals.
Representative Bob Goodlatte questions FBI Director Robert Mueller regarding Section 1021 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Mueller appears unfamiliar with the specific language concerning the indefinite detention of U.S. citizens, leading to criticism of his preparedness on constitutional rights.
While the media focuses on SOPA, Ron Paul introduces legislation to repeal Section 1021 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This controversial section allows for the indefinite detention of American citizens without trial. Paul warns that the law effectively turns the U.S. military into a domestic police force, a point the hosts feel is being ignored by the public.
